Forgive me Lord
For I have Sinned
I have neglected You
For erroneous whims
I know imperfection
On rising each noon(ish)
Forgive me Lord
I'll remember you soon(ish)
Yes, make me Remember
My Roots in the carpet
Lord Your Picture
Is darned near perfect.
When I look on the week
And see all I have done
Lord, I can see
That You were The One
In the back of my mind;
Lord, I will find
And Love You Again
[I Hate News At Ten]
I Genuflect
From seat to seat
The comfiest one
Is at your feet
But Lord I am Home
To Worship once more
O! Neighbours (bow head)
Is best viewed from the floor.
Forgive me Lord
You know right from wrong
My time for these questions
Is a time that's long gone
Forgive me Lord
You're darned near perfect
My odious nature
My Odious Nature
Lord I BESEECH THEE!
Was that week really worth it?
